Künstlerhaus Bethanien Berlin: Book Launch and Artist Talk­, Per Svensson, “Sculptural Alchemy”, 17. Oktober 2024

Berlin, 11. Oktober 2024

“My work is a free form research in art, alchemy, and sound. In my art, I am occupied with looking up nature’s way to create organic, asymmetrical, and even geometrical structures. In my works, I am creating visual and sound art structures of different materials such as; metal, wood, color, sound devices, and film. I work with and feel connected to the primordial elements of nature. My sculptures and performances are about social and environmental issues. My art is created from within, using alchemy and sound as tools, and nature as a source”, Per Svensson.

Künstlerhaus Bethanien is pleased to present the new publication by Swedish artist and former artist in residence Per Svensson. The book is a comprehensive compilation of Svensson’s various projects, including his exhibition at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in 2023. The event will be moderated by Carola Uehlken (artist, curator and author) and led by a panel discussion with Per Svensson (artist) and Dr. Heike Fuhlbrügge (curator and author).

The book is published by Distanz Verlag. The artist's new music album (Hansa Records Berlin) is released at the same event and can be purchased as well.
